William Henry Harrison, the ninth president of the U．S．，was born in a small town．When he was a boy，he was very quiet and shy．Because he was so quiet，everyone thought that he wasn’t bright(聰明)．

The people in the town often put a nickel(五分鎳幣)and a dime(一角硬幣)before him and asked him which to choose．He always chose the nickel and they laughed．

One day a woman felt sorry for him．She asked，“Why do you never take a dime and always choose a nickel instead? Do you know a nickel is worth(值……錢)much less than a dime?”

“Certainly I know it，”William answered slowly．“But if I choose the dime，they will not ask me to choose them any more．”

1.Where was William Henry Harrison from?

2.When William Henry Harrison was a boy，what was he like?
